Yeah, such a coincidence that the greatest personalities in most of industries I know are humble, really strange. In the games field some of the interviews I recall recently are those of Jason Jones, Mark Cerny and Hideo Kojima who all display great personalities and humility, not arrogance.

And with that, Kojima gained respect from me. Yep, I'm one of those who doesn't love MGS series... but I'm interested in MGS5. That gameplay video at E3 was very impressive.

Yeah... I've only played 1, 4 and PW, but in my opinion, V was one of the best games on show at E3. Too bad they had to fast forward so much. I would've been more than happy to sit through the whole demo. I really need to get the rest of the games before V releases.

Regardless of who likes or dislikes MGS games (and u know which one of those i am )
no one can dispute that Kojima-San is both charismatic yet extremely humble. Its very cool that he
gives props to games that are very far removed from what his own strengths in game design are.

Dont worry someone is hopefully patting Hideo on the back right now, reminding him that yes, while
his games are not as 'big' as a GTA game for instance, MGS blows them away in terms of story structure,
narrative, characters and certainly audiovisual presentation (thats 'da good grapphix' for the layperson).

Thanks for this post, all in all its awesome when some of the greatest ever to do it are big fans of the
other greats in their respective industry. Which, if one is truly great, is usually the case.

In unrelated news: cant wait to see the porno version of 'Pacific Rim'. use your imagination. or maybe dont!

People like Cliff Bleszinski & Phil Fish could take a few lessons in tact from the man. You can have all the talent in the world, but humble trumps conceited everyday. Especially considering he's been cranking out games since they were in grade school.
